Survey Sites: The Hit List

Here is my current hit list of survey sites:

• FusionCash

1. Simple website layout. Its nothing fancy really.
2. Easy to sign up for
3. Multiple ways to cash out. Paypal, direct deposit, paper check
4. Offers media tools such as banners and links
5. Requires phone verification or faxing ID verification (the faxing scares me a bit)
6. All surveys under a category
7. Must have $25.00 earned to cash out

• Panda Research (LOVE IT)

1. Great Layout. Shows available surveys, survey compensation and account balance.
2. Easy to sign up
3. Pays out through Paypal
4. Referral program pays you 10% of friends payout amount
5. Evaluate other sites and perform a survey (some require a purchase, these have bigger compensation)
6. Sends paid email. Click the email for a small compensation and get larger compensation for completion
7. Must have $50.00 earned to cash out

• InboxDollars  (NOT A FAN)

1. Simple Layout. Shows Surveys, survey compensation, account balance, paid email count, and a "To Do" list for bonus compensation.
2. Easy sign up
3. Pays out through paper check only and it takes 30 days for verification. So expect 6 weeks to be paid after cashing out.
4. Referral program. $.50 when your friends complete the "To Do" list then 10% of their qualified earnings.
5. Sends a ton of "paid" email. Opening the email and clicking the validate button earns you $.02 and you get extra for completing the offer. (OFFERS PRODUCE MEGA SPAM!)
6. Has a promotion system. At $30.00 you become a "Gold" member and compensation increases.
7.  Must have $30.00 to cash out

• Jobs2Shop 

1. Very simple layout. Can not change your password or update settings.
2. Easy sign up
3. Pays through paper check or gift cards.
4. No referral program.
5. Sends paid email.
6. Has cash and point based evaluations and surveys.
7. Must have $25.00 to cash out. I have already cashed out since opening the account. Took 3 days to build up $25.00 and spent nothing.
